Thank you for the setup, i mixed up your recommendation and the one on the front page and ended up with a 2k setup which over at kch cost about 2.4k.

You may try to ask a quote from pc image via email to check price if lazy to pay a visit to their shop. But their respond is quite random, take few days sometime.

Just went at afternoon and purchased smile.gif and they do carry Sapphire cards actually

There cannot get sapphire 7770?
Just rm 349 instead of 479

They didnt have the normal version, so i got the sapphire 7770 vapor x model, but i only realized after i bought it, a extra RM10 could get me the sapphire 7790, so definitely in a facepalm moment now doh.gif

Last question, not sure if this is too off topic, but a CM K280 with just the front fan installed is enough to cool the rig right? Gonna leave everything stock as i want this rig to last me around 3-4 years

Unfortunately just got my rig last night, didnt try to cancel it as they had already built the rig, and im not sure even if its possible to change at such the last minute, still want to maintain healthy relationship with pc image sweat.gif

About the fans, they installed a single intake fan at the side. Thinking about installing another outtake fan at the rear, should balance out everything right?
